G   G/F#    Em Em7  C          C/B     Am  Asus2 Am
Dead in the water,  it's not a paid vacation

G   G/F#     Em           Em7    C        C/B        Am      Asus2 Am
The sons and daughters of city officials attend demonstrations

G    G/F#     Em      Em7       C                  D            Dsus4
It's hardly a sink or swim when all is well if the ticket sells

G G/F#     Em    Em7 C         C/B       Am   Asus2 Am
Out with a whimper,  it's not a blaze of glory

G        G/F#           Em        Em7    C           C/B       Am   Asus2 Am
You look down from your temple as people endeavor to make it a story

G   G/F#       Em     Em7        C                   D           Dsus4
And chisel the marble words that all is lost if it's never heard

C
But I've got someone to make reports

D
That tell me how my money's spent

C
To book my stays and draw my blinds

D
So I can't tell what's really there

D7
And all I need's a great big congratulations

G    G/F#      Em  Em7 C       C/B       Am    Asus2 Am
I'll keep your dreams, you pay attention for me

G   G/F#         Em         Em7       C          C/B      Am      Asus2 Am
As strange as it seems, I'd rather dissolve than have you ignore me

G   G/F#          Em     Em7        C                  D           Dsus4
The ground may be moving fast but I tied my boots to a broken mast

G   G/F#          Em Em7 C            C/B       Am     Asus2 Am
The difference is clear, you throw it in your cauldron

G  G/F#  Em      Em7       C         C/B      Am     Asus2 Am
Rust and veneer, dusk and dawn, Steinways and Baldwins

G   G/F#         Em     Em7      C                 D            Dsus4
You start with a simple stock of all the waste and salt to taste

C
But damn my luck and damn these friends

D
That keep on combing back their smiles

C
I save my grace with half-assed guilt

D
And lay down the quilt upon the lawn

D7
Spread my arms and soak up congratulations
